The @ symbol is not coming as I wish. I want to have the classical symbol, like the one visualized here. I tried in normal text and math mode but it is the same.
With the code below, I am not getting the symbol I want. I post images of both symbols.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[italian]{babel}
\begin{document}
@
$@$
\end{document}

It's up to the font designer to decide how a particular glyph should be rendered in their font.
You can decide to borrow a particular symbol from another font, though. It seems that your preference goes for the symbol in Times, so the simplest strategy is to do
and to use
\myfavoriteat
(or whatever name you prefer).You might also decide to make
@
active so to be able to simply type@
.If you go with the active character approach, don't blame me if something goes wrong. I did warn you.
